Title: Where to buy Wells U5000 Circuit Boards
Post by: thewmster on August 04, 2010, 01:49:43 pm

Where can I get my hands on circuit boards for a Wells U5000? I have the monitor but no boards.

it's called a "chassis" chass-ee.

you will not find anything new. this chassis is almost 20 years old

your best bet is e-bay or forums like these... search the for sale areas. problem is that the tubes they used in the u5000 where junk. likely the one you have is dim, or worse has blown color guns in it.

your best bet would be to try and find a whole monitor or replace it with a television (depending on what your plan is)

I have a box of U5000 chassis in storage...maybe 10 or 15 of them from killed vids...the tubes are junk as mentioned above and don't take well to rejuvination...killed 3 of 5 I attempted on the lowest setting.

Q*Bert_24/7,

Do you still have any more of the U5000 chassis left?

I'm also looking for one for my Daytona USA.  Numbers on the chassis:  WGM2550-U4BR22E

Thanks
